He exchanges insults with another patron before shooting everyone as they reach for their guns. Buster then wanders into Frenchman's Gulch and enters a saloon, leaving his guns at the door to comply with its no firearms policy. He joins a game of poker that another player has suddenly left, but discovers the player vacated the seat after being dealt the infamous <a href="/wiki/Dead_man%27s_hand" title="Dead man's hand">dead man's hand</a>, which the other players insist Buster play now that he has seen the cards. When Buster refuses, a large menacing player named Joe stands up and draws a concealed revolver. After failing to persuade Joe to end the confrontation, Buster repeatedly kicks a loose plank in the poker table, which tips Joe's hand so that his gun discharges into his face. Having shot himself three times, Joe falls dead. Buster breaks the barroom tension with a boisterous song about "Surly Joe",<sup id="cite_ref-Joe_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Joe-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>b<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>c<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> to the patrons' delight. </p><p>Joe's brother challenges Buster to a gunfight. Buster complies and proceeds to shoot off each of the fingers of his opponent's right hand before stylishly finishing him off with the sixth shot delivered over-the-shoulder using a mirror. A young singing cowboy clad in black then rides into town and politely challenges Buster. Buster obliges but, to his surprise, the young man is an even faster draw and shoots him in the forehead. Buster examines the bullet hole in his hat before collapsing, admitting in voice-over that he should have foreseen that "you can't be top dog forever". The young man and Buster then sing a bittersweet duet, "When A Cowboy Trades His Spurs For Wings", as Buster's spirit rises from his body and floats toward heaven, with angel wings and a lyre and expressing hope of a place above where people are better than they are on Earth. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id=""Near_Algodones""><span id=".22Near_Algodones.22"></span>"Near Algodones"</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ballad_of_Buster_Scruggs&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: "Near Algodones""><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A young cowboy robs an isolated <a href="/wiki/New_Mexico" title="New Mexico">New Mexico</a> bank. As he flees, the bank teller shoots at him, forcing him to take cover behind a well. He returns fire, but the teller charges at him while wearing a washboard with several pots and pans as armor, which deflect all the cowboy's bullets as the teller repeatedly cackles "Pan shot!" The teller knocks the cowboy out with the butt of his shotgun. </p><p>When the cowboy regains consciousness, he is sitting on his horse under a tree with his hands tied and a noose around his neck. The leader of a posse asks for his final words, saying he has been sentenced to death while unconscious. The execution is interrupted by attacking <a href="/wiki/Comanche" title="Comanche">Comanche</a> warriors, who slaughter the posse but leave the cowboy sitting on his horse with the noose around his neck. </p><p>After a time, a <a href="/wiki/Droving" title="Droving">drover</a> passes by and frees the cowboy, who joins him on his drive. The drover is a <a href="/wiki/Cattle_raiding" title="Cattle raiding">rustler</a>, and another posse chases him and the cowboy down. The drover escapes, but the posse captures the cowboy and takes him into town, where the judge orders him to be hanged. As the cowboy stands on the gallows with three other men awaiting execution, he looks at the weeping man to his left and quips, "First time?" The cowboy's eyes settle on a pretty young woman in the crowd, who smiles at him before the hangman abruptly hoods him and pulls the trapdoor lever to cheers from the crowd. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id=""Meal_Ticket""><span id=".22Meal_Ticket.22"></span>"Meal Ticket"</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ballad_of_Buster_Scruggs&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: "Meal Ticket""><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>An aging impresario and his artist, Harrison, a usually uncommunicative young man with no arms or legs, travel from town to town in a wagon that converts into a small stage where Harrison theatrically recites classics such as <a href="/wiki/Percy_Bysshe_Shelley" title="Percy Bysshe Shelley">Shelley</a>'s poem "<a href="/wiki/Ozymandias" title="Ozymandias">Ozymandias</a>"; the biblical story of <a href="/wiki/Cain_and_Abel" title="Cain and Abel">Cain and Abel</a>; works by <a href="/wiki/William_Shakespeare" title="William Shakespeare">Shakespeare</a>, including <a href="/wiki/Sonnet_29" title="Sonnet 29">Sonnet 29</a> and <i><a href="/wiki/The_Tempest" title="The Tempest">The Tempest</a></i>; and <a href="/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln" title="Abraham Lincoln">Abraham Lincoln</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Gettysburg_Address" title="Gettysburg Address">Gettysburg Address</a>. The impresario collects money from the crowd at the end of each performance, but profits are dwindling as they visit increasingly remote towns with smaller, less appreciative audiences. </p><p>After a performance that yields no profit, the impresario observes a man nearby drawing a crowd with a chicken that ostensibly performs basic arithmetic by pecking at painted numbers to answer addition and subtraction problems the audience calls out. After buying the chicken, the impresario drives the wagon through a mountain pass and stops by a bridge over a rushing river. He walks to the center of the bridge and drops a large stone to gauge the water's depth before returning to the wagon. The impresario resumes driving, with the caged chicken as his only passenger. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id=""All_Gold_Canyon""><span id=".22All_Gold_Canyon.22"></span>"All Gold Canyon"</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ballad_of_Buster_Scruggs&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: "All Gold Canyon""><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A grizzled <a href="/wiki/Gold_prospecting" title="Gold prospecting">prospector</a> arrives in a pristine mountain valley and digs for gold in a grassy meadow.

After his first night camping, he spots an owl tending its treetop nest. When he climbs up and reaches the nest, the owl's watchful gaze from a nearby tree causes him to replace three of the four eggs he had taken for his breakfast. </p><p>On his third day, he digs out gold nuggets of increasing size before finally reaching "Mr. Pocket", a large gold vein running through the quartz he has uncovered. A young man who has been observing him work approaches the edge of the hole. He shoots the prospector in the back and the prospector falls face down.

Gilbert has a violent coughing fit and dies shortly after the trip starts. The wagon train's leaders, Mr. Billy Knapp and Mr. Arthur, attribute Gilbert's death to <a href="/wiki/Cholera" title="Cholera">cholera</a> and help Alice bury him. </p><p>Though she has no definite prospects in Oregon, Alice continues the trip rather than return east. Matt, the young man Gilbert hired to lead their wagon, claims Gilbert promised him a high wage of $400, half of which he expects when they reach the halfway point, <a href="/wiki/Fort_Laramie_National_Historic_Site" title="Fort Laramie National Historic Site">Fort Laramie</a>. Alice believes Gilbert's money was buried with him and conveys her predicament to Billy, who offers his support in contemplating how to proceed. He also does Alice the favor of first attempting to shoot Gilbert's small dog, President Pierce (named for <a href="/wiki/Franklin_Pierce" title="Franklin Pierce">Franklin Pierce</a>), then scaring him off, because the dog's constant barking has drawn widespread complaint. </p><p>Billy proposes to solve Alice's dilemma by marrying her in Fort Laramie, assuming Gilbert's debt, and retiring from leading wagon trains to build a home and family with her upon the 640 acres in Oregon that he can claim according to the <a href="/wiki/Donation_Land_Claim_Act" title="Donation Land Claim Act">Homestead Act</a>. Alice is surprised by Billy's proposal, but has grown fond of him, so she accepts. Billy informs Mr. Arthur that this will be their last ride together. </p><p>The following morning, Mr. Arthur notices Alice missing. He rides over a nearby hill to find her reunited with President Pierce and laughing as the dog barks at some prairie dogs. Mr. Arthur then spots a Native American scout and advancing war party. Preparing for a fight, he gives Alice a pistol so that if he is killed, she can shoot herself to avoid capture. He twice drives back the charging warriors with his rifle, but a remaining warrior appears to kill him. Mr. Arthur kills the warrior, then discovers that, believing he was dead, Alice shot herself as he had instructed. Mr. Arthur walks back to the wagon train, unsure of what to say to Billy Knapp. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id=""The_Mortal_Remains""><span id=".22The_Mortal_Remains.22"></span>"The Mortal Remains"</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ballad_of_Buster_Scruggs&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: "The Mortal Remains""><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>An Englishman (Thigpen), an Irishman (Clarence), a Frenchman (René), a lady (Mrs. Betjeman), and a <a href="/wiki/Fur_trade" title="Fur trade">fur trapper</a> ride to <a href="/wiki/Fort_Morgan,_Colorado" title="Fort Morgan, Colorado">Fort Morgan, Colorado</a>, in a stagecoach. Thigpen says that he and Clarence often travel this route "ferrying cargo", alluding to a corpse on the roof, but does not specify the nature of their business. </p><p>The Trapper rambles about his past relationship with a <a href="/wiki/Hunkpapa" title="Hunkpapa">Hunkpapa</a> woman in which neither knew the other's language but were able to understand each other's emotions, leading him to conclude that people are all essentially alike. Mrs. Betjeman, a devout Christian, indignantly retorts that there are only two kinds of people, upright and sinning, and says she knows this because her husband, whom she is traveling to meet after having been apart for three years, is a retired <a href="/wiki/Chautauqua" title="Chautauqua">Chautauqua</a> lecturer on "moral and spiritual hygiene." René challenges both her views and the trapper's, reflecting on the unique and subjective nature of human experiences. As an example, he questions whether Mr. Betjeman conceives of love the same way Mrs. Betjeman does, conjecturing that if he does not, perhaps he has not remained faithful to her during their separation. </p><p>Mrs. Betjeman becomes apoplectic, and René calls for the coach to be stopped, but the driver does not halt. Thigpen explains that the stage company's policy is not to stop for any reason. Clarence sings the folk song "<a href="/wiki/The_Unfortunate_Rake" title="The Unfortunate Rake">The Unfortunate Lad</a>", which calms Mrs. Betjeman. He and Thigpen then reveal themselves to be "reapers", or <a href="/wiki/Bounty_hunter" title="Bounty hunter">bounty hunters</a>. Thigpen tells the group that their usual method is for him to distract their targets with stories while Clarence "thumps" them. Thigpen says he enjoys watching them die, especially the expression in their eyes as they "negotiate the passage" and "try to make sense of it". </p><p>The other three are visibly unsettled as they arrive at the dark and foreboding hotel in Fort Morgan. They remain in the coach while Thigpen and Clarence carry the corpse into the hotel and up its stairs, which are brightly lit from above by a white light. They then slowly disembark, and the coach departs without unloading any bags. Mrs. Betjeman and the trapper warily make their own way through the hotel door. René pauses to watch the coachman set off, then sets his top hat at a jaunty angle and enters with an air of amused resignation, closing the doors behind him. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ballad_of_Buster_Scruggs&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li><b> The Ballad of Buster Scruggs</b> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Tim_Blake_Nelson" title="Tim Blake Nelson">Tim Blake Nelson</a> as Buster Scruggs</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Willie_Watson_(musician)" title="Willie Watson (musician)">Willie Watson</a> as The Kid</li> <li><a href="/wiki/David_Krumholtz" title="David Krumholtz">David Krumholtz</a> as Frenchman In Saloon</li> <li>E.E.
